Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to gaming machines, retrofit card readers for gaming machines, and methods of operating gaming machines and retrofit card readers. As an example, a method is disclosed that includes receiving an indication that a wireless communication module has wirelessly communicated with a player credential, synthesizing a state change that emulates a physical card insertion event in response to receiving the indication that the wireless communication module has wirelessly communicated with the player credential, and communicating the synthesized state change to a Slot Machine Interface Board (SMIB). The synthesized state change may be communicated with a set of electrical signals that include a card detection state and data read from the player credential.

Abstract: Based on receipt of a validation request by a transceiver from a mobile device, a determination that a mobile device is authorized to provide remote input to a gaming device is made. A signal strength threshold for the transceiver is modified from a first signal strength threshold associated with a first distance between the transceiver and the mobile device to a second signal strength threshold associated with a second larger distance between the transceiver and the mobile device, wherein the second distance is greater than the first distance. Based on receipt of a remote connection request from the mobile device, a determination whether the remote connection request meets the second signal strength threshold is made. In response to determining that the remote connection request meets the second signal strength threshold, the mobile device is allowed to provide remote input instructions to the gaming device.
